In reply to @lassulus:lassul.us
the format is called f2fs-tools?
amended anyway, though it's interesting that VM tests won't catch those issues due to modules/tasks/filesystems in nixpkgs

@shinri:zince.net@shinri:zince.netHi. I'm shifting to tmpfs root with disko configuring my disk partition ( my conf here: https://git.sr.ht/~zincentimeter/nix-conf/tree/main/item/system/disko.nix ). How can I mount it as /nix and left all directories except /nix/* to be on disk? Should I move all the existing files of /nix to / before go forward to rebuild the directory layout?12:58:43

Hi! Looking to use disko and I have a few questions:

  • It seems guides on the disko repo are for new installs. Is there something about using disko for an existing install?
  • Do I have to describe all existing disks with disko or can I just use disko for a single new drive I'm adding?
  • I want to declare a disk with a couple of btrfs subvolumes. If I ever want to add more subvolumes, can I just add it to the disko declaration and have it perform the operation?
10:54:21
@lassulus:lassul.uslassulusdisko works for already installed systems, although writing a disko configuration is a bit more involved than declaring fileSystems.* so there wouldn't be much real gain. You can define many disks and btrfs subvolumes and you can rerun the creation step and it "should" just add the new subvolumes. although that is a new and untested feature, so use it with care (and backups)12:38:53

@raj-magesh:matrix.orgRajIs there any work ongoing to support multi-disk filesystems?15:06:30
@lassulus:lassul.uslassulusWe have support for some of those I think? Which one are you thinking of?15:20:04
@raj-magesh:matrix.orgRajI was thinking about bcachefs, with a single filesystem spread across multiple disks21:02:33
